It was my moms birthday a couple days ago. Poor thing, broke her ankle a month ago, and my dad is doing the honors nursing her back on her feet - wish I could be there for you ma.
My mom...hmm...a woman of a very few words. A silent observer, she could take on the weight of the world , always ready to help anyone in need, always giving so freely of herself. Her family is her priority, who knows how many sacrifices she has made for us over all these years. Who knows, how many of her own dreams she gave up so that our dreams could come true. She taught me to live life to the fullest and be grateful for the opportunities that I have, cos there are so many less fortunate people out here. Everyone she meets gets so influenced by her caring and her humility.
If I could be only 1/2 the mother she is, I'd she happy. She has taught me every virtue she has in her. She has taught me to be humble, to be kind towards everyone. Now I am running out of words to describe my “Ma”. She is not only a role model for me but for everyone who comes across her and she will remain a source of inspiration for me throughout my lifetime.
Heres to you ma, in the words of Josh Groban:
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; I am strong,
You raise me up… To more than I can be.
Love you forever ma - nans
